I haven't felt any brake drag, but that doesnt mean it's not happening. I was planning on flushing and changing the brake fluid when I had the bike apart in the next couple of weeks, so I guess I'm claning the caliper too! haha

Thanks guys,
Mike

 

On the Lyndal site there are tips for cleaning the calipers.

 

Mike,

I didn't realize that the front brake on the FXSTS was a single piston. Guess I had the image of a CVO Springer in my head.

Did some searching (I am a curious person) and found this thread:

Good luck with checking if the rear is hanging / rubbing.

 

DCGrey2,

That thread was entertaining!! haha yeah, I'm going to disassemble it pretty quick here....

Thanks again man,
Mike

 

Aren't the 'Gold' the metal sintered ones for racing that can tear up rotors?

I've always used Organic Kevlar, ( Lyndall or EBC,) with great success.

 

Nope. Kevlar organic.

 

Stand corrected, Thanks
